Review: The Invincible Summer of Juniper Jones

The Invincible Summer of Juniper Jones The Invincible Summer of Juniper Jones by Daven McQueen


This is such a beautiful story. The plot revolves around Ethan and Juniper and their unforgettable summer in 1955.

Although I loved the book, I have a few issues. The writing of this author isn't very mature. I heard it's a Wattpad story. I think the author should have polished the book a little bit more before publishing. The sentence structure was poor and the word choice wasn't rich either. Also, Juniper's family issue wasn't focused much. It was mostly focused on Ethan and his struggle. I would love to read more about her.

The main issue I have with this book is the title because when I read the first chapter I immediately knew something bad happened to Juniper. It gave away the major plot twist. However, these issues can be overlooked because the plot is tragic and beautiful at the same time. Nonetheless, Its a story about friendship, innocence, and racism.

Anyway, Hades Hangman is an emotional series to me. Tillie cole not only writes broken heroine, but she also did damn well with broken heroes too. There were many times I had to pause because it was so descriptive. I cried but also felt joy when the characters was able to find happiness. Sinning never felt so good… A fortuitous encounter. A meeting that should never have happened. Many years ago, two children from completely different worlds forged a connection, a fateful connection, an unbreakable bond that would change th...
